'Ramble On' by Led Zeppelin - Adam Pearce (Acoustic Cover)

Yes, this song is about The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings. Look it up! As a huge fantasy nerd, and one who read LOTR in high school, I can always relate to Robert Plant's lyrics. So much of this band's work has rubbed off on me as a singer, guitarist, and songwriter. No one compares to The Mighty Zep when it comes to rock n' roll. No one.

Lyrics:

Leaves are falling all around
It's time I was on my way
Thanks to you I'm much obliged
For such a pleasant stay
But now it's time for me to go
The autumn moon lights my way
For now I smell the rain
And with it pain
And it's headed my way
Ah, sometimes I grow so tired
But I know I've got one thing I got to do
Ramble on
And now's the time, the time is now
To sing my song
I'm goin' 'round the world, I got to find my girl
On my way
I've been this way ten years to the day
Ramble on
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams
Got no time for spreadin' roots
The time has come to be gone
And thoough our health we drank a thousand times
It's time to ramble on
Ramble on
And now's the time, the time is now
To sing my song
I'm going 'round the world, I got to find my girl
On my way
I've been this way ten years to the day
I gotta ramble on
I gotta find the queen of all my dreams
I ain't tellin' no lie
Mine's a tale that can't be told
My freedom I hold dear
How years ago in days of old
When magic filled the air
'T was in the darkest depths of Mordor
I met a girl so fair
But Gollum, and the evil one
Crept up and slipped away with her
Her, her, yeah
Ain't nothing I can do, no
I guess I keep on rambling
I'm gonna, yeah, yeah, yeah
Sing my song (I gotta find my baby)
I gotta ramble on, sing my song
Gotta work my way around the world baby, baby
Ramble on, yeah
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, my baby
Doo, doo, doo, doo
Doodoo doodoo doodoo doodoo doodoo
I gotta keep searching for my baby
(Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)
I gotta keep-a-searchin' for my baby
(My, my, my, my, my, my, my baby)
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I can't find my bluebird
I listen to my bluebird sing
I can't find my bluebird
I keep rambling, baby
I keep rambling, baby

I'm 64 and it's the first time ever I could make out those lyrics.

[Tonijo]

This is the best led zeppelin cover ive ever heard

[jordanjardine]

Dude when the singing kicked in my jaw literally dropped. Incredible cover.

[JackAndAmandaGoode]

Came for the guitar and stayed for the vocals- awesome!

[maciejmoczun]

When my dad heard your cover without seeing the video, he asked if it was mtv unplugged, great job dude. This is the best cover i've ever heard.

[isorozco]

You know a performance is good when you forget its just 1 guitar and are still mesmerized.

[StephenSypert]

Other than being a phenomenal cover, the most impressive piece of this performance is how effortlessly he looks rocking the hell out of this very difficult song to sing. Absolutely stellar.

[joeguitarrist]

I’m so impressed your voice sounds so much like Roberts omg

[paraflightjoe]

NOoo! Friken way!!! Awesome!
RAMBLE ON!!!

[thrakd]

Love it! You are feeling it. This song was never in my upper echelon of favorite Zep Tunes. Until I saw Plant and Page on the Walking into Clarksdale tour. They played this and it was a religious experience. It is now in my top ten. Great job.

[roubiac]

Unbelievable! This is a difficult song from both a vocal and acoustic guitar standpoint and you nailed both parts! Wow Adam - you make this seem effortless!

[stefaandeblock]

Being a Led Zeppelin fan ... this version : guitar part & vocals are stunning ... WOHAAAA

[michaelkuttles]

If LZ needs a new lead singer, you’re it. Great job.

[mikeamelia]

Get the Led out! Lol. Dude… you rocked it!

[chuckjamon]

Best zeppelin cover !!!! Totally insane
Intense !

[ErrolFlynn]

Once again, Adam blew my mind. I don't know how to describe it other than I could pick up the Robert Plant influence in his vocals for the song, but still it was Adam singing. The guitar playing was bad ass too. As always. Thank you!

[CurtisAutery]

Jesus. Hints of all four of them. Just incredible.

[codeybales]

This guy, holy hell....Delivers every time. 100%.

[scotttatlock]

This was just so fantastic man! That guitar sounds amazing! Great strumming and singing. Really dug it bro!

[davewoodward]
